Top Blogger Ashes & Milk Shares Her Favorite 8 Design Resources

Nikko Moy, who curates the online gallery and blog ashesandmilk.com, believes that the things we bring into our homes should have a soul and a sense of history. Her site is filled with handmade works of art, and her blog documents the process of creating original art. We're particularly obsessed with the hand-drawn Pierres Graphiques (pictured) and the Nicolas Cheng porcelain cups cast from salvaged wood (and the exquisite matching storage box).

When she isn't working on her own site, Moy is busy trawling others:
